Hi to you all! Today is the anniversary of my left breast mastectomy last year! I had a lumpectomy before that too. I also completed chemo, rads & am home recovering from a bilateral mastectomy with DIEP flap reconstruction on June 14th. I am so grateful to you all for your kind words during the past year from hell. As I said my prayers this morning, I thanked God for my health and for the strength he grace me to get through this. I truly believe the key is to never give up & to reach out and ask for help when you need it. What a wonderful website this has been for me and for countless others!

    I guess that's the appropriate thing to say and why not, really, since you're filled with gratitude and good energy and still here!!!

    Enjoy your day,
